Starting and Radio problems
Hey guys, I'm having some trouble with my truck. So here's what's happening:
I just got a new battery and it started right up the first time. I cut my truck off and then tried to hook up my new radio. (All I had to do was hook it up, I soldered everything already). So I managed to get power to the radio but no sound came out, it said it was playing the cd but still nothing. After many attempts of trying to get it to start I decided to check the fuse box to look for any blown fuses. I noticed that two relays were extremely hot. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I figured it's worth a shot. Here's a picture:

For the no sound issue: check for something grounding out, most common problem with no sound besides the HU being bad, or improperly connected. When the HU powers up do you hear any noise initially, maybe a pop?
Pull your codes, seems to me I've read quite a few posts about not starting when warm but most of those involve the engine cutting out, problem is usually PIP sensor or ignition coil, but without the cutting out I'm not sure if this is the same issue and just hasn't advanced that far or something totally different.
